I still don't think he'll be president again. The last guy to get elected president twice was Grover Cleveland.

No, the last one elected twice was Obama. The intervening period means nothing. Remember, his followers believe he was elected this time time too. Polls say that if he runs he'll win and he'll sure run.

No, sum1.

I don't mean the last guy to get reelected while he's still in office. I mean the last incumbent president who lost reelection and went on to win another presidential election was Grover Cleveland. He was our 22nd and 24th president and the only president to serve two nonconsecutive terms. He got elected in 1884 and served from 1885-1889, lost his reelection bid to Benjamin Harrison, who served from 1889-1893, and then ran for president again against President Benjamin Harrison and beat him, and served a second term from 1893-1897. No other president in history has ever done anything like that, which is why it's highly unlikely that Trump will.

Yes, I already dealt with all that. Did you miss (from my post):

In other words I knew you were talking about two terms separated by an intervening period and I felt it was irrelevant to Trump's chances. The polls now say he'll win.

My apologies, sum1.

No offense meant. I don't like the use of the word "correct" because of what that historically implies, but I will avoid saying anything condescending... even though you've done it to me before.
